Real-Time Ready Dish Notifications

The instant the kitchen expediter marks a dish as ready on the Kitchen Display Screen, the assigned waiter's device vibrates with an alert, guaranteeing hot food is served immediately.

When seated guests tap 'Call Waiter' or request extra water from their QR digital menu, the notification routes immediately to the assigned section waiter with the exact table number.
